‘Pure Comedy’, Father John Misty

‘Pure Comedy’, the title track of Father John Misty’s soon-to-arrive new album, is a labyrinthine poem that both enlightens and bewilders its listener. With abstract musings on existentialism and the nature of the Western world, this lyrical reverie is underscored by a solemn piano piece that culminates in a theatrical surge of strings and percussion, melody and drama. Have a listen below and anticipate the album.
